What an easy to understand concept, but so much harder to actually implement. I'm sure every one of us has at some point struggled with loving yourself. It is so much easier to beat yourself up over past mistakes, the way that we look, our life and surroundings. We are in this perpetual state of working away from just being okay with the way that we are right now.
However, loving yourself is the number one thing you can do to change your perspective, and to change your life.
I have not always loved myself, and I still have days where I talk to myself in a way that I would never want a friend or lover to talk to me.
But every day I remind myself that I am the most important person in my life, and to love myself is to accept everything about me.
I love my large feet, my naturally highlighted hair, being 5'10, my positive attitude, kindness, empathy, being laid back, and a hundred other things!
I also want to do another gratitude list today!
June 25th, 2014
1. My job. I am a college student, and the place I work at is just amazing. Such great people who love what they do, and I am so grateful I get to work in such a fun loving and positive environment.
2. Summer. Oh, how I love summer. It's warm, it's humid, it's amazing. I love being outside and in nature, and being in the summer heat while reading a book and birds dancing around me brings me extreme joy!
3. Ham and Cheese. I had a ham and cheese sandwich today. With lots of mayonnaise. And tomatoes. I saved the other half for dinner. I can't wait!
4. Friendliness. The past two days, I have had numerous people in my classes, and whilst I am going about my life, express an interest in talking to me about various things. I am so grateful that I have had the chance to connect with such amazing people. I am creating many great friendships!
5. Love. I am just in love with my life. Every twist and turn gives me contrast into what I want and where I want to be.
